On the Automorphism Group of the First Weyl Algebra

Let A ₁: = 𝕜[t, ?] be the first algebra over a field 𝕜 of characteristic zero. Let Aut_𝕜(A ₁) be the automorphism group of the ring A ₁. One can associate to each right ideal I of A ₁ a subgroup of Aut_𝕜(A ₁) called the isomorphism subgroup of I. In this article, we show that each such isomorphism subgroup is equal to its normalizer. For that, we study when the isomorphism subgroup of a right ideal of A ₁ contains a given isomorphism subgroup.

Linear Representations of the Automorphism Group of a Free Group

Let F _n be the free group on n ≥ 2 elements and Aut(F _n ) its group of automorphisms. In this paper we present a rich collection of linear representations of Aut(F _n ) arising through the action of finite-index subgroups of it on relation modules of finite quotient groups of F _n . We show (under certain conditions) that the images of our representations are arithmetic groups. Received: November 2006, Accepted: March 2007     

On Finite Groups with Few Automorphism Orbits

Denote by ω(G) the number of orbits of the action of Aut(G) on the finite group G. We prove that if G is a finite nonsolvable group in which ω(G) ≤5, then G is isomorphic to one of the groups A₅, A₆, PSL(2, 7), or PSL(2, 8). We also consider the case when ω(G) = 6 and show that, if G is a nonsolvable finite group with ω(G) = 6, then either G ≈ PSL(3, 4) or there exists a characteristic elementary abelian 2-subgroup N of G such that G/N ≈ A₅.     

The Semi-Arc Automorphism Group of a Graph with Application to Map Enumeration

A map is a connected topological graph cellularly embedded in a surface. For a given graph Γ, its genus distribution of rooted maps and embeddings on orientable and non-orientable surfaces are separately investigated by many researchers. By introducing the concept of a semi-arc automorphism group of a graph and classifying all its embeddings under the action of its semi-arc automorphism group, we find the relations between its genus distribution of rooted maps and genus distribution of embeddings on orientable and non-orientable surfaces, and give some new formulas for the number of rooted maps on a given orientable surface with underlying graph a bouquet of cycles B_n, a closed-end ladder L_n or a Ringel ladder R_n. A general scheme for enumerating unrooted maps on surfaces(orientable or non-orientable) with a given underlying graph is established. Using this scheme, we obtained the closed formulas for the numbers of non-isomorphic maps on orientable or non-orientable surfaces with an underlying bouquet B_n in this paper.     

Automorphism Group of q-Quantum Torus Lie Algebra with q a Root of Unity*

Let α be an automorphism of a ring R. We study the skew Armendariz of Laurent series type rings (α-LA rings), as a generalization of the standard Armendariz condition from polynomials to skew Laurent series. We study on the relationship between the Baerness and p.p. property of a ring R and these of the skew Laurent series ring R[[x, x ^?1; α]], in case R is an α-LA ring. Moreover, we prove that for an α-weakly rigid ring R, R[[x, x ^?1; α]] is a left p.q.-Baer ring if and only if R is left p.q.-Baer and every countable subset of S _?(R) has a generalized countable join in R. Various types of examples of α-LA rings are provided.

Classifying Finite Simple Groups with Respect to the Number of Orbits Under the Action of the Automorphism Group

Abstract

Let ω(G) denote the number of orbits on the finite group G under the action of Aut(G). Using the classification of finite simple groups, we prove that for any positive integer n, there is only a finite number of (non-abelian) finite simple groups G satisfying ω(G) ≤ n. Then we classify all finite simple groups G such that ω(G) ≤ 17. The latter result was obtained by computational means, using the computer algebra system GAP.

Automorphism Groups of Semi-Direct Products

Let G = A ? B be a semi-direct product of two groups. We investigate conditions under which the subgroup of Aut(G) fixing A as a set is also a semi-direct product. If A is characteristic in G, then we have conditions under which Aut(G) itself is a semi-direct product.
